KENTUCKY TRAINERS ACTIVE SHARP WORK AT LOUISVILLE TRACKS IN PREPARATION FOR RACING. Hallenbeck Stable to Leave Saratoga for Churchill Downs September 10 C. P. Lamar Coming from British Columbia Horses for Hawthorne. Louisville, Ky., August 25. Many horses aro working sharply at Churchill Downs and Douglas Park. With the opening of fall racing at Lexington less than three weeks away, horsemen realize that they have no time to spare in getting their charges in racing condition. The fastest work at Churchill Downs yesterday was by Round the World, which fleet filly was sent six furlongs in 1:18, in hand all the way. She appeared to have all her speed and could apparently have run fast had her rider set her down. L. P. Doerhoefers good mare. Mary Davis, worked five furlongs, pulled up, in l:04g, and that Louisville turfmans smart two-year-old colt, Tommie Thompson, did three furlongs in 37. The Kentucky Endurance Stakes candidate, Royal Report, was worked a mile and an eighth by trainer George Land and he pulled up the distance in 2:03. running the first mile in 1:49. The son of Requital Is training nicely for the big race, and he will be a starter in the two and a quarter-mile Autumn Cup race during the Lexington meeting. Other good moves at the Downs included the following: Coletta Mile in 1:49. Emily. Lee Five-eighths in 1:05. Eye White Three-eighths in 38. cantering. Helen Scott Three-eighths in 39. Jim Gaffney Quarter mile in 20, pulled up. John Griffin II. Quarter mile in 25. ! Keep Moving Half mile in54. cantering. King Olympian Three-eighths in 40. Lackrose Half mile in 55. easily. Oakland Quarter mile in 20, handily. Parkview Half mile in 50. pulling up. Pinkola Quarter mile in 25, hard held. Quartermaster Half mile in 54g, pulling up. The Hague Half mile in 53J, handily. Turret Quarter mile in 25g. cantering. Yanker Three-eighths in 37J, in hand. Zieuap Mile in 1:55. John Masterson, who has charge of getting together the horses to lie shipped from here for the Labor Day race meeting at Hawthorne. Chicago, has gone to Latonia, where he expects to secure some horses. He will also arrange, if possible, with Tom Brown to act as secretary and starter during the coining meeting. The horses that will go from Chnrchill Downs and Douglas Park to race at Chicago are: G. L. Dovle, Spalding. Emily Lee, Amoret, Helen Scott, John Grillin II., Lord Dixon, Tim Judge, Sona. Tom Big-bee, Marzo, Helen Burnett. Gertrude Hill, Sarah Cheuault. Gallant Pirate and Inclement. All of em will be returned to the local tracks as soon as the Chicago racing is over. Acting Secretary Edward Jasper has received a letter from trainer Frank Taylor statiug he would ship the stable of H. C. Hallenbeck to Churchill Downs from Saratoga September 10, and would require fourteen stalls for the string. Among the horses trainer Taylor will bring with him to the Downs next month are: Fauntleroy, Sir Marlon. Herkimer, Stinger, Adams Express, Miss Minnie, Recompense, Prince Gal, Housemaid, Worth and Judge Walser. Mr. Hallenbeck has expended over 0,000 in strengthening his stable in the last few weeks. Trainer John Lowe has had to have the firing irons applied to the tendon of one of Marian Caseys forelegs, and the daughter of Star Ruby will be out of racing the coming fall, though her trainer hopes to have her ready for the early part of the winter meeting at Juarez. J. H. Mead, who owns Marian Casey, John Louis, Chapultepec and other horses, reached the local tracks after a rest of a few weeks at Atlantic City. Trainer Lowe has all of the Mead horses at Douglas Park, except John Louis, which is in Canada in charge of trainer Miller Henderson. He intends to have that son of Ben Bramble shipped here in a few days to be prepared for the four-mile Kentucky Endurance Stakes. The gelding has always shown a liking for a considerable distance of ground. An order came to Acting Secretary Jasper for four stalls for the racing string of C. P. Lamar, who is shipping here from Vancouver. B. C. Mr. Lamar lias Millo, Thistle Belle and other useful racers in his stable. O. A. Bianchi went to Latonia to see about shipping the string of horses which trainer S Judge has in charge there to Churchill Downs at an early date. Some of the horses in this string are owned by James McManus, and others in the barn are owned by the latter and Mr. Bianchi in partnership. Trainer Judge has eleven horses in his care, including the crack two-year-old Presumption, and such other good performers as Rocky OBrien, Rosslare, George Oxnard, Golden Agnes, Tay Pav, Doncaster and Star ORyau at the Downs. Mr. Bianchi brought from Sacramento with his stable now at the Downs twenty-nine bales of what is known as California, hay. The shipment made such a bulk as to virtually require an entire car. The western turfman wants it especially for feed for his yearlings and weanlings. Wayne Joplin is in doubt about being able to train and race Golden Pearl and Little Dutch before-winter, and both horses are still at the farm near Elizabethtown. Trainer Enright will make no effort to take them up until October, and it may be that no effort will be made to train them until spring. They broke down during the recent summer meeting at Latonia. W. G. Yanke and Col. W. E. Applegate have fourteen horses in the long barn adjoining the betting ring at Churchill Downs, and are at present the only occupants of that big stable, and it is also the only string of horses quartered at present on the grandstand side of the track.
